    Aside from the disgusting mattress and overflowing garbage can this really isn’t all that bad lol

    Yeah it’s cluttered and messy but it’s not a total shit show. There is some order to it

        This house is cleaned compared to my home when I was working 13 hour days and trapped in The Depression Zone™. Regardless of the situation, if my friend’s house looked like this I’d give him some shit about it but it wouldn’t stop me from hanging out there

        I am actively house hunting and trying not to judge homeowners when I see a mess since I can’t know the context. Maybe they’re depressed, disabled, or they’ve been forced to leave under short notice and the piles are the result of the move…my place currently looks like a hoarder home right now because I’m sorting and boxing things up so the closets were emptied.

      I know this boils down to personal tolerance, but I’m a little horrified that anyone could look at this and say it “isn’t all that bad”.

    This actually seems quite tame compared to some houses. A house round here I called the “redneck house” sold at auction recently and I’d hate to see internal photographs if the smell of dog waste wafting out if it was any guide. There is now a skip outside and security barriers around the property, presumably because it is a biohazard.

    Oof; maybe they should hire a different real estate agent if they didn’t suggest cleaning up a tad bit more…It looks like the people who live here have kids which can make cleaning a nightmare…Or they may have ADHD or depression and let it all get too overwhelming to tackle…But there are definitely people who just don’t mind it at all. I’ve deep cleaned things and shown housemates how dirty the floor/tiles/whatever is, and they end up really shocked because they just couldn’t see that whatever it was was dirty at all. It’s wild to me

      Yeah. The ADHD/depression thing can really make things bad. It’s kinda funny though. One day out of nowhere I’ll snap out of it, say “Nope”, and clean something… next thing you know it’s a few hours later and everything’s nice. It’s just so hard to keep it that way because I feel like I’m just running on autopilot most of the time.

    With a trophy that big, they don’t need to clean their room. Unless that’s a trophy for cleanest room

      Maybe it is a trophy for cleanest room, and every time they think about cleaning, they realize they already got all the achievements, so why bother.

    I used to work for someone whose wife was a realtor. She would sometimes email and ask me to doctor photos of messy rooms and make them look more presentable.

    I never saw any this bad before, though.
